Top Best Sushi Places & Restaurants in Wellwood

"Harajuku Kitchen is a light and bright Japanese bistro with a touch of magic in the air and food that it could have been teleported in from Tokyo. At first glance, the menu may look a little pedestrian—most of the usual suspects are here, including gyoza, sushi rolls, sashimi, and yakisoba noodles—but once the plates arrive, it's clear that there's a pro in the kitchen. The flavors sing, and everything tastes fresh and light but decidedly moreish."

"Harajuku Kitchen, the Bruntsfield-based Japanese bistro, is a sushi staple in the city and, to their credit, was one of the first eateries in Edinburgh to adapt to the takeaway trend. The online menu includes a variety of sushi, noodles, set mains (with miso soup and rice), sake and Japanese beer. The team’s focus is very much on respect for the ingredients used as well as their flavours."

This shop is a little off the beaten path, but if you’re looking to take someone on a rainy day date (or you’re just too lazy to microwave yourself some soup – which I feel), head over to Maki Ramen and watch cars and people walk by while you guzzle down a bowl of hot ramen. Don’t forget to read the post-it note memories and doodles left on the wall by other customers, and maybe add your own to the mix!"

"Sushiya is a small, but perfectly formed sushi restaurant which brings a little slice of Tokyo to Edinburgh. The decor is minimalist and stylish, as are the bowls and plates, with the flourish provided by the intricately prepared dishes and garnishes. The food almost looks too good to eat!"

"Kanpai Sushi has become so popular in Edinburgh, that they have opened a new sister restaurant, Yamato. It's doing just as well, so again, you'll need to book in advance to avoid disappointment. The setting is beautiful and the selection of sushi is mouth-watering and perfectly presented."

"I was always a big fan of Kanpai on Grindlay St, but their sister restaurant Yamato is my new go-to place. I love Japanese cuisine anyway but they always have Toro Tuna belly which I love."

"This multi award-winning Japanese restaurant and takeaway serves a variety of sushi, tempura, teppan and more. The food is outstanding, and the restaurant's elegant interior and ambience makes it the perfect date night restaurant for sushi lovers. As with all the best restaurants, we advise you to book in advance."

"If you’re going to visit one sushi restaurant in Edinburgh, make it Kanpai. It’s the most expensive restaurant on this list, but it’s also easily the best sushi in the city. The presentation of their food is superb, and the menu is full of inventive dishes."

"A post shared by edibledinburgh🍴 (@edibledinburgh) on Feb 23, 2016 at 6:19am PST. Though its name is ‘Bonsai’, this restaurant’s menu is anything but small!. It offers dumplings, soups, rice, sushi, and more – with pickles and other sides galore."

"Bonsai is a great spot for an inexpensive lunch, with cheap bento box and sushi deals on offer everyday. Their hand rolls are particularly tasty, especially the spicy tuna. And their green tea creme brûlée is the perfect post-sushi dessert."

"Luca Dairy Ice Cream (@lucasicecream) on Mar 8, 2019 at 5:31am PST. With a heritage dating as far back as the 1890’s it’s no wonder this family named ice-cream makes our best of list. When Luca Scappaticcio left Italy, and arrived in Scotland he brought with him the knowledge and fine art of making ice-cream to perfection and his family has continued to do so ever since."

"Running around like a wild child can certainly work up an appetite. Satisfy those taste buds and grab a bite at S Lucas at either of their Morningside or Musselburgh locations. This diner-style ice cream parlour is quite the treat and has a never-ending selection of eats suited to both children and adults."

"In the swanky Stockbridge neighborhood of New Town, Artisan Roast is a beauty. A scrumptious display of homemade treats tempt you as you wait in line to order one of their precisely made drinks. Artisan roasts a selection of beans from Africa, South and Central America, and Asia at its roastery on the other side of town."

"The first independent coffee roaster in Scotland is always a good place to start. Artisan roast have branches in both Bruntsfield and Broughton. They are committed to small batch roasting and their coffee shops offer quirky yet humble interiors."

"Fittingly, the home of specialty coffee in Scotland is located in a converted house. Artisan Roast was the country’s first specialty coffee and roastery. Since its establishment, Artisan Roast has helped to grow the coffee scene in Scotland."

"Perth Bridge is a symbol of the city and on a nice sunny day, it’s no wonder why. Connecting Perth city centre with Bridgend, the impressive arched structure dates back to as early as 1771. Fancy a super close up of the historic bridge?"

"Address: Lothian Road, Edinburgh, EH1 2EP, Scotland, UK Tel: +44 (0)131 229 1142 St. Cuthbert's stands alongside the West Princes Street Gardens and just up from the Royal Lyceum Theatre, where it was built on the remains of six previous historic churches. Visitors will be able to admire a stunning marble pulpit, colourful stained-glass windows, war memorials and an Italian Renaissance-style interior."

"St Cuthbert’s Parish Church, located at the west end of Princes Street, has several theories surrounding its origins. One is that St Cuthbert sheltered in a hollow below Castle Rock while journeying from Melrose. Whatever the true origin, this is the most ancient religious site in Edinburgh, although the present church building dates back to 1892-4."

"Also dating back to the 1800s, Old St Paul’s has since been renovated multiple times – the nave extended and the chancel floor raised with marble. Nearly all of the many panes of stained glass, ornaments and vestments were made possible by fundraising or donations. Unusually, the gargoyles at Old St Paul’s are located inside, not on the exterior of the church as is common on buildings of this period."

"Immerse yourself amongst the hustle and bustle of Perth’s High Street from the comfortable confines of Dewberry Cafe & Wine Bar. Fine dining, plus home-baked cake, plus wine; what’s not to love?. Take a quick squint at their colour cocktail menu too!"

"Cafe Tabou is undoubtedly a unique place, where taste and good manners prevail. The professional service entails satisfying every wish of the customer."

"The Water of Leith is a great bistro style cafe which has gained a huge local following and become one of the most popular eateries in the Cannonmills area. The cafe has a relaxed and extremely welcoming ambiance and the French style food is both delectable and reasonably priced. Great Cullen Skink sits happily alongside French classics such as Croque Madame and the specials board is always brimming with tempting treats."
